How Pre-Emergent Treatment Offers Results in Somerset

The truth is, weed control strategies can vary enormously based on different invasive plant species, the condition of your turf, soil quality, and other details. That’s why our licensed technicians tailor our treatment recommendations for each property.

Let’s review one of the most common weed control options for spring: pre-emergent treatment:

  • What does it do? Simply put, pre-emergent treatment stops weeds from reaching the surface. When it’s applied, it offers a protective barrier within the first few inches of soil. As new invasive species try to send up seedlings, the active ingredient in pre-emergents will stop them from growing any further.
  • What kinds of plants does it affect? Because of how pre-emergents work, they impact germinating weeds specifically. That means rhizome plants, like certain nightshade species, won’t be affected. Despite that exception, this product works well with many grassy and broadleaf plants, including stiltgrass, dandelion, chickweed, and crabgrass
  • When should it be applied? In Somerset, the first pre-emergent treatment should be sprayed before the weather has fully warmed. Typically, March is the ideal time. Since it’s a preventative treatment only, it must occur before you see crabgrass or other similar growth.
  • How often should treatment occur? Treatment recommendations will always vary based on the types of weeds you’re dealing with as well as grass species and other factors. Your lawn weed control service can always provide a more specific schedule based on your property. That said, expect at least two treatments per season.
